Jordan’s Public Security Directorate (PSD) announced a significant decline in the dangerous practice of celebratory gunfire, attributing the to widespread public rejection and the imposition of strict legal penalties on offenders.

The PSD emphasised that its intensive national campaign against negative behaviours—such as firing live ammunition and illegal vehicle processions—continues to expand.

It noted that penalties now extend not only to the shooter but also to the host of the event or homeowner where the gunfire takes place.

To support enforcement efforts, the PSD provided a WhatsApp number (0797911911) for citizens to report incidents or send photos and videos documenting such violations, enabling quicker responses and arrests.

Field units are on round-the-clock patrols, working to maintain public order, seize weapons, and refer offenders to the judiciary—all in an effort to protect lives and ensure community safety.
